If you or your students access Student Domains via Internet Explorer, you will need to begin using one of our supported browsers. If you or your students are currently using Internet Explorer (IE) to log into Student Domains, please switch to a supported browser. I do not see myself using another project tool anytime soon, but I also do not see the need to force everyone to my opinions when there is a way to integrate with apps they are already using.Effective Febru, Skilljar will no longer support Internet Explorer or Internet Explorer Mode in Microsoft Edge on Student Domains. Allow for better task creation, reporting out to channels with weekly dashboards, and project statuses to show in Slack as it does in Teams. So I say meet people where they are at and grow the capabilities of Slack. Slack Integration Functionality Needs to Grow Without these integrations and capabilities, people would silo and PMs would lose track of work. More roads leading back to Asana.Ĭreating, updating, interacting with work in many applications allows all roads to lead to Asana.

Now in Zoom, I can easily create/update task right from a meeting. If using my browser, then clicking on the extension is where I ideate. If I think of an idea while I have Slack open, then I want to ideate right then. Personally, I want to create tasks where I conceive them. This allows quicker adoption while making sure updates and communication is transferred back to Asana. So I meet them where they are at- in Slack (or InVision, or other tools). But I also very much understand that not everyone sees the same value of Asana as I do. As a PM, I wont’ track tasks outside of Asana. I have a saying that if it’s not in Asana, it doesn’t exist. Also, when people know that tasks will get escalated, they tend to care about their completion more. Sure, you can them, but let’s be honest, you get quicker responses in Slack especially when people know others have visibility also. Messaging out to a group in Slack for these teams can help everyone stay informed of progress without physically creating a deck to share out.Īre there tasks more than x days past due? Slack a leadership/executive channel. Asana does not have a way to report out to these folks unless you adopt a 3rd party app (more cost, more noise, more management).

Not everyone is using Asana - SHOCK - I know the larger issue is some companies do not want to give licenses out to those who just need visibility but have no tasks. They are the Doers, not Trackers.įor these types of groups, having notifications of new tasks added or task coming due or blocked is a great way to be sure everyone has visibility and someone can action that task even if they are not the assignee. They already have a suite of tools, such as Slack and do not need Asana for many of its features. So they are not in it 24/7 as say a PM/Manager would be. Often there are folks, or groups of folks, that do not adopt a project tool as others do. Here are a few reasons you should start using Slack with Asana.

One might, as I do, argue this is the reason Asana has integrations so you can work where you are while allowing Asana to manage across platforms. Some might even say they are too busy to manage yet another tool as they are already using several tools to get the work done. Some do not care about project tools and feel they get in the way of getting work done (more work about work). But not everyone uses a project tool in the same way, nor approaches it as project managers do. I am an Asana fanboy for sure, and really like Slack as well.
